Free Doughnuts! Best Day Ever! Austinist deserves a thousand thanks for telling us about Doughnut Day at Krispy Kreme. We're sure the Prudential shop has a line all the way to library, but we're still going down there for a free caramel kreme crunch.
Bostonist hopes other local eateries will join Krispy Kreme and Ben & Jerry's and give away their sugar-packed fatty goodness at least once a year. We just wish they'd wait until after bathing suit season.
EDIT: Bostonist reader says the Pru isn't participating! Bostonist called up the Medford store and the lady "thinks" they're doing it.

More Than a Feeling: New George Clooney Movie Stares at Goats, Appreciates Boston


the prudential isn't participating in this today. sorry.
Ben & Jerry's has a free ice cream day every year. The last one was in late April/early May. As always, the line at the Park Plaza location was 2-3 people across and stretched halfway down the block.
